Power-X Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tamano City, Okayama Prefecture; Director, Representative Executive Officer and CEO: Masahiro Ito; Securities Code: 485A) will participate in the inaugural 'Setouchi Industrial Art Festival 2026,' to be held this autumn in the Okayama and Setouchi region. The company's headquarters factory, 'Power Base' (Tamano City, Okayama Prefecture), which manufactures energy storage systems and other products, will serve as one of the festival venues. During the event period, artworks by artists will be exhibited, and the facility will be open to the general public.
The Setouchi Industrial Art Festival is a new, decentralized art festival that uses diverse industrial sites as stages—from traditional industries that have supported regional development, such as salt production, textiles, and shipbuilding, to modern industries like battery technology and resource recycling. Active factories and industrial plants will be transformed into exhibition spaces, where artists reinterpret the technologies and labor landscapes of each site from unique perspectives, offering the public rare access to normally restricted industrial environments through the lens of art.
Power-X endorses the festival's mission of rediscovering the value of regional industries through artistic perspectives and sharing it both locally and beyond. Together with other participating companies, Power-X aims to contribute to revitalizing the Setouchi region and passing on manufacturing traditions to the next generation.
